About meEnvironmental and historical geography grad student. Academic focus on mountains, tourism, human-nature interactions, place meanings, the American West, and New Zealand. Personal focus on green living, outdoor sports, and organic cooking, among other interests. Also worked in a library and doing web design long enough to develop an unhealthy side obsession for information architecture and folk taxonomies.

About my libraryTwo things to know:

1) I am very selective about the books I buy and rarely buy books without reading them at least once first. So if its in my library (and not indicated as something that was given to me/bought because I had to for some reason) its something I think highly of by definition. (There's also a few things - tagged "read-and-want-to-own" - that I plan to add but haven't had the money to buy yet. I have cataloged these since I've read them a couple of times and they're just on the short list waiting to join the fold.)

2) Only the (small) portion of my library with me this summer has been cataloged here. I look forward to entering the rest of my library when I'm reunited with my books.
